‘OK, job isn’t done’: Chicago Cubs toast return to postseason — and eye a deeper run (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As the left field bullpen doors swung open before the start of the ninth inning, Chicago Cubs right-hander Ryan Zeferjahn began his trot to the mound with one thought. “Just (get) the last three outs,” Zeferjahn said. But there was something else that was creeping into his head. The Cubs had a one-run lead over the Miami Marlins, and the final frame was all that separated them from a clinching playoff berth and a champagne celebration that Zeferjahn had seen numerous times on TV growing up. Chic

Chicago Cubs third baseman Alex Bregman hunched over, his chest bent slightly as reliever Ryan Rolison began to rifle a pitch to the plate. The 2024 Gold Glove Award winner squatted as the ball was delivered, charged to his left, fielded the 66.2 mph groundball from Ozzie Albies, threw it to Pedro Ramírez at second base, who chucked it to first base for a double play that helped the Cubs escape an eighth-inning jam. It was a pivotal play that kept Atlanta off the board in the frame as the Cubs b

Chicago Cubs catcher Miguel Amaya turned as soon as the crack of Pete Crow-Armstrong’s bat reverberated and looked to center field. The Cubs star and National League MVP candidate crushed a fly ball 106.4 mph off his bat in the third inning to the deepest part of the park and appeared to have given his team an early lead. Instead, the wind, which was blowing in at 10 mph at first pitch, knocked the ball back 18 feet, the scoreboard at Wrigley Field said. It nestled in the glove of Pittsburgh Pir
Much-maligned pen delivers for Chicago Cubs, who rally for 4-3 win and take 1-game lead for top NL wild card (opens the original)

The Chicago Cubs thought they were receiving a new option for their reeling bullpen. Right-hander Edward Cabrera was activated off the 15-day injured list Saturday after missing nearly a month with a right middle finger blister and was inserted into the relief corps, taking the place of Trent Thornton, who landed on the IL with a left ankle sprain. But later in the day, it was the familiar faces of manager Craig Counsell’s bullpen who picked up the final 10 outs in a come-from-behind, 4-3 win ov
Alex Bregman and Chicago Cubs offense bust out to back Shota Imanaga in 12-2 rout, snapping skid at 4 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Chicago Cubs’ precarious bullpen situation means every pitching appearance is under the proverbial microscope. So, you can forgive Cubs fans if, two batters into Friday’s series opener against the Pittsburgh Pirates, they started to feel a bit queasy. Konnor Griffin roped a triple to the right-center gap, then scored on an Oneil Cruz single to left field off Shota Imanaga. With 27 outs to go, the Cubs’ four-game losing streak looked destined to extend. Then, catcher Carson Kelly nabbed Cruz
